The domaine later added Le Mont and Clos du Bourg, creating a trio of vineyards that helped establish Huet as a reference point for chenin blanc in the Loire. Biodynamic farming began in 1988 and the estate has been certified since the early 1990s. Today Huet remains under the ownership of the Hwang family, with Sarah and Hugo Hwang overseeing the domaine and Benjamin Joliveau leading the vineyard and cellar team.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLe Haut-Lieu is Huet’s original and largest vineyard, planted on the Vouvray plateau over deep brown clay and limestone soils. The 2025 Moelleux 1ère Trie is 100% chenin blanc, harvested by hand through successive passes through the vineyard. “Première Trie” refers to a particularly selective picking of intensely ripe, often botrytized fruit, producing a sweeter and more concentrated wine than the regular Moelleux. The 2025 carries roughly 119 g\/L residual sugar, balanced by substantial natural acidity. Fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeasts, split between tank and older barrels, followed by around six months of élevage, approximately half in each.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2025 is intensely concentrated yet remarkably fresh, with quince, apricot and tangerine alongside tropical fruit, honey and dried flowers. The palate is rich and creamy, but a powerful spine of acidity and chalky minerality keeps the sweetness beautifully controlled. The finish is exceptionally long, layered and precise, and this is very much a wine built for decades of aging. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roanoke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949977796923,"sku":null,"price":96.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/flightwineshop.com\/products\/domaine-huet-le-mont-sec-vouvray-2024-copy","provider":"Flight Wine Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
